“Star Trek: Lower Decks” Showrunner Discusses Series Conclusion in Season 5

Mike McMahan reflects on the unexpected end of the animated series and teases a "special" final season

As “Star Trek: Lower Decks” prepares to launch its fifth and final season on Paramount+, showrunner Mike McMahan has opened up about the unexpected conclusion of the popular animated series and how the team is approaching its last batch of episodes.

In a recent interview with AwardsRadar, McMahan expressed both gratitude for the show’s run and a hint of regret at its impending end. “For me, it’s like, I’m greedy. I would have kept making this show forever, but getting five seasons is such a miracle,” McMahan said. He emphasized the unexpected nature of the show’s success, stating, “It’s insane that this show even existed. Every season I felt like was a miracle.”

The announcement of the series’ conclusion came amidst a wave of TV cancellations in 2024, catching many fans by surprise. However, McMahan assured viewers that the final season would not disappoint, promising a “special” sendoff for the beloved characters.

“There are grand stories I’m telling for the characters in Lower Decks,” McMahan explained. “So, Season 5 feels like an amazing sendoff. It feels like the end of a chapter but not the end of a series.”

This approach suggests that while the animated series may be concluding, the door remains open for potential future adventures of the USS Cerritos crew in other formats. Fans have already speculated about possible live-action appearances, similar to the successful crossover with “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds,” or continuation through comic book storylines.

McMahan’s comments also hint at a finale that may focus more on character arcs and open-ended possibilities rather than a definitive conclusion to the series’ overarching narrative. This strategy could allow for the integration of “Lower Decks” elements into future “Star Trek” projects, maintaining the show’s influence on the broader Trek universe.

While an exact release date for “Star Trek: Lower Decks” Season 5 has not been announced, it is expected to premiere later this year as part of Paramount+’s 2024 lineup. As fans prepare to bid farewell to the animated series, they can take comfort in McMahan’s assurance that the final season will be a fitting tribute to the show’s unique blend of humor and “Star Trek” lore.

The legacy of “Lower Decks” seems secure, with McMahan confident that the series has made its mark on “Star Trek” canon. As he put it, “I’m sure that future adventures will acknowledge the crew of the Cerritos, their shenanigans, and some of the truly bonkers ideas that ended up becoming part of the canon.”

As “Star Trek: Lower Decks” prepares for its final mission, fans can look forward to a season that promises to be both a celebration of the series’ run and a potential springboard for future stories in the ever-expanding “Star Trek” universe.
